Storage
Store machines that are not in use in a dry locked place
protected against frost and outside the reach of children and
unauthorized persons.
Before a longer period of storage
carry out the following to
extend the power pruner’s service life and ensure an easy
operation:
Remove the battery
thoroughly clean the device
Remove the oil from the oil tank.
: Some chain oils tend to encrustations after a longer
period. For this reason the oil system should be
flushed before a longer storing with a chain saw
cleaner. Fill the cleaner up to the middle (approx. 50
ml) into the oil tank. Close the tank. Switch on the
power pruner without assembled guide bar and chain
until the complete cleaner has left the oil opening of
the power pruner.
Put the saw chain for a short time into an oil bath and
enwrap it afterwards in an oil paper.
Put the chain guard in place.
Refer to the respective “Operating instructions” for further
information on the batteries and the charger.

Before each fault elimination:
switch off device
wait for the power pruner to come to a standstill

After each fault clearance, put into operation and recheck all security installations.
